Geocache Description:

Congrats to Axxed for FTF in the dark!

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE ABOVE COORDINATES DO NOT GO THERE

This is the 2nd installment in my “Who Am I?” series.

Who am I? You must find out in order to find the cache.

All I know is that my name is 123 143 141 142 142 145 162 163

In order to find the cache you will need to answer 7 questions about me and do some math to get the final coordinates.

Here's some pointers to assist you on your 7 questions:
Sum is the total by addition of a group of numbers (sum of 25, 30, and 15 is 70)
Checksum is the sum of the digits (checksum of 25, 30 and 15 is 16)
Character Value is the ordinal position of a character in the alphabet (character value of G is 7)
The Sum of the Character Values of the word Dog is 26 (4+15+7)
The Checksum of the Character Values of the word Dog is 17 (4+1+5+7) 1.)

Number of letters in my current owner’s last name Call that number A.
2.) Number of letters in my previous owner’s first name. Call that number B.
3.) What is my “skill”? Add the sum of the numeric values of each letter and call that number CC.
4.) What nickname did I earn while learning that skill? Add the numeric value of the first letter and the last letter of that nickname to the total number of letters in the nickname and call that number DD.
5.) What kind of creature am I? (don’t over-think this one). Let the number of letters be E.
6.) Count the number of letters in the last name of the person’s arm I cut to draw blood and let that number be F. 7.) What is numerical value of the first letter of my last name as I was known when I attended the school that my current owner is currently attending. Let’s call that number GG.

(The sum of answers A, B, CC, DD, E, F, & GG is 165.)

Now it’s time to do some math:

MM = (B*3) + GG
NNN = (DD*E) + (CC*2) – (F*F) + (A*A) +7
PP = (A*A) + 9
QQQ = (A*B*E*GG) - (C*8) - E

The coordinates to the final are at N45 MM.NNN W122 PP.QQQ

When replacing, please make sure the Ziploc is well sealed and placed back inside the cache container. There is room for some very small trade items, but please keep them inside the ziploc so they don’t fall out or get wet, and please re-hide the cache well. Also be wary of muggles as there are several businesses near here. Please bring pen or pencil as there is no room for one in the cache.
